This seems to have gotten much worse in recent weeks and I don’t understand why. On a wide array of subs, spanning many topics. Moderators seem to be very quick suddenly to quash decenting opinions.

I’m developing a similar approach to Reddit (in theory) Saying these sites are great resources for information, but not great places to express emotion.

The big caveat here is “good sales for the company” Sales reps so often have incentives that are terribly aligned with the company’s long term success.

I my experience, you aren't actually doing nothing and having nothing asked of you. You are more likely tasked with things that require spinning your wheels. Boring, pointless, and directionless work that doesn't challenge you. It

Not really sure, which is why I left it intentionally ambiguous. Clearly, "tech" roles on the front lines of medicine such as a CT Scan operator are going to suffer from the same stressors that others on the front lines experience

I grew up with ZackFreedman. We were good friends as kids for a year or two, but then lost touch. Remember hearing vaguely that he had gotten into stuff like this a couple years back. What a blast from the past! Thanks for sharing.

I like the idea of replacing the time I spend on Reddit with blogs that provide new insights. One big place I’ve found Reddit helpful in recent years is a niche community about a chronic illness I have. Initially for collecting more informa

Thanks for sharing. Makes sense and I can relate to many of the things you say about Reddit (too bad it’s so hard to do things in moderation these days).

Why do you think spending time on HN is better than Reddit? Serious question, because I’m not sure I understand. Hope it doesn’t come off as antagonistic. I too wonder if the negative things Reddit does to me outweigh the positive, but neve

Just want to point out that this post is by a company that works in the “AI” space. Not saying that it’s wrong or right, but it would be like asking someone in a cult to tell you if the cult is a scam. You might find a few dissenting voices

Every moment in your life is an ultimatum because you can not do two things at once. So while I like the concept of this advice, its hard to execute in practice. I'd adjust it to "never choose the one who is unwilling to discuss

And if they did really want to hide it, why not do a better job? If you don't want to lie on the Whois, use a shell company or something.

The most forgiving explanation is they are acting as a middle man, to avoid telling sellers who the customers really are. But why would StubHub avoid admitting they are doing that? SeatGeek just has you transfer the tickets to an email at t
